1 Content The evaluation board described here is a 300W power factor correction (PFC) circuit with 85~265VAC universal input and 393VDC fixed output. Boost converter topology is employed in this board. The continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC controller ICE2PCS01 is employed in this board to achieve the unity power factor. The switching frequency is programmable by external resistor at one pin. There are various protection features incorporated to ensure safe system operation conditions. The device has a unique soft-start function which limits the start up inrush current thus reducing the stress on the boost diode. To improve the efficiency, the third generation CoolMOS is used as the power switch due to its lowest area specific Rdson. High voltage Silicon Carbide (SiC) Schottky diode thinq! is used as PFC boost diode. Because of its ideal reverse recovery behavior, SiC Schottky diode is extremely suitable for high frequency CCM PFC application. 2 Evaluation board 5
3 Technical specifications: Input voltage 85VAC~265VAC Input frequency 50Hz Output voltage and current 393VDC, 0.75A Output power ~ 300W Efficiency >90% at full load Switching frequency 62.5kHz (with R8=76K) 4 Circuit Description Line Input The AC line input side comprises the input fuse F1 as over-current protection. The high frequency current ripple is filtered by R1, L1 and CX1. The choke L2, X2-capacitors CX1 and CX2 and Y1- capacitor CY1 and CY2 are used as radio interference suppressors. RT1 is placed in series to limit inrush current during each power on. Power Stage Boost Type PFC Converter After the bridge rectifier BR1, there is a boost type PFC converter consisting of L3, Q1, D1 and C2. The third generation CoolMOS is used as the power switch Q1. Due to its low Rdson, the small heat sink can fulfill the dissipation requirement. SiC Schottky diode thinq! is used for D1. As SiC Schottky diode does not show a reverse recovery behavior, the stress on the MOSFET will be reduced due to very low current spike during turn on transient. Simultaneously higher reliability of the entire system can be achieved. However, due to the poor pulse current capability of SiC Schottky diode, a standard diode D2 is necessary to bypass the high inrush current during each power on transient. Output capacitor C2 provides energy buffering to reduce the output voltage ripple (100Hz) to the acceptable level. PWM control of Boost Converter The PWM control is realized by 8-Pin CCM PFC IC ICE2PCS01. Unlike the conventional PFC controller, ICE2PCS01 does not need direct sine wave reference signal. The switching frequency is fixed and programmed by R8. There are two control loops in the circuit, voltage loop and current loop. The output voltage is sensed by the voltage divider of R5A, R5B, R6A and R6B and sent to internal error amplifier. The output of error amplifier is used to control current in the inner current loop. The compensation network C4, C5, R7 constitutes the external circuitry of the error amplifier. This circuitry allows the feedback to be matched to various load conditions, thereby providing stable control. In order not to make the response for 100Hz ripple, the voltage loop compensation is implemented with low bandwidth. The inner loop, current control loop, is implemented with average current mode strategy. The instant current is adjusted to be proportional to both of MOSFET off duty D OFF and the error amplifier output voltage of voltage loop. The current is sensed by shunt resistors R2, R2A and R2B and fed into IC through R9. The current sense signal is averaged by an internal operating amplifier and then processed in the PWM generator which drives the gate drive. The averaging is realized by charging and discharging an external capacitor C7. The IC supply is provided by external voltage source and filtered and buffered by C8 and C9. The IC output gate driver is a fast totem pole gate drive. It has an in-built cross conduction current protection and a Zener diode to protect the external transistor switch against undesirable over voltages. The gate drive resistor R4 is selected to limit and gate pulse current and drive MOSFET for fast switching. 5 Circuit Operation Soft Start When Vcc pin is higher than turn-on threshold, typical 11V, PFC is going to start. The unique soft start is integrated. Input current keeps sinusoidal and is increasing gradually until output voltage reaches 6
75% of rating. Because the peak current limit is not activated, the boost diode is not stressed with large diode duty cycle under high current. Enhanced Dynamic Response Due to inherent low bandwidth of PFC dynamic, in case of load jump, regulation circuit can not response fast enough and it will lead to large output voltage overshoot or drop. To solve this problem in PFC application, enhance dynamic response is implemented in the IC. Whenever output voltage exceeds by ±5%, it will bypass the slow compensation operating amplifier and act on the nonlinear gain block to affect the duty cycle directly. The output voltage can be recovered in a short time. Protection Features a. Open loop protection (OLP) / Mains under voltage protection The open loop protection is available for this IC to safe-guard the output. Whenever V SENSE voltage falls below 0.6V, or equivalently V OUT falls below 20% of its rated value, it indicates an open loop condition (i.e. VSENSE pin not connected). In this case, most of the blocks within the IC will be shutdown. It is implemented using a comparator with a threshold of 0.6V. Insufficient input voltage V IN will also trigger this protection. b. Output over-voltage protection Output over-voltage protection is also available by the same integrated blocks of enhanced dynamic response. Whenever V OUT exceeds the rated value by 5%, the over-voltage protection OVP is active. This is implemented by sensing the voltage at pin V SENSE with respect to a reference voltage of 3.15V. A V SENSE voltage higher than 3.15V will immediately reduce the output duty cycle even down to zero, bypassing the normal voltage loop control. This results in a lower input power and the output voltage V OUT is reduced. c. Soft over current control (SOC) and peak current limit When the amplitude of current sense voltage reaches 0.68V, Soft Over Current Control (SOC) is activated. This is a soft control does not directly switch off the gate drive but acts on the internal blocks to result in a reduced PWM duty cycle. The IC also provides a cycle by cycle peak current limitation (PCL). It is active when the voltage at current sense voltage reaches -1.04V. The gate output is immediately off after 300ns blanking time. d. IC supply under voltage lock out When VCC voltage is below the under voltage lockout threshold VCCUVLO, typical 11V, IC is off the gate drive is internally pull low to maintain the off state. The current consumption is down to 200uA only. 7
